FT - Function Test
Roadster Soft Top Opening Sequence
Initial stage: Roadster Soft Top closed.
Each frame (1-8,10) in Figure 1 shows each opening sequence step (1-8) along with each component, with actuation of hydraulic actuators and window motors, that must be completed first before the next sequence step can be accomplished.
